I started on a saw like that (different colour and badge, but same build) and it served me well in that it showed me that I was interested in the hobby and wanted to go further with it. Hopefully it should do the same for you too. Does it take pinned blades? as the saw I had like that only took pinned blades and it does limit you to what you can saw with it as you need to allow for bigger entry holes
